The Trick Every Magician Should Be Carrying

 

Add Visual Flare to Any Routine

Whiplash

Josh Janousky describes Whiplash as  the "MacGyver of card gimmicks" and we're inclined to agree. This magical Swiss Army Knife will punctuate any routine with the perfect final punch. 

WATCH THE INCREDIBLE VIDEO HERE!

Whiplash lets you vanish, transpose, and transform cards in an insanely visual manner. In a snap the card they were looking at vanishes. 

Josh walks you through 4 original routines including his own Oil and Water and an original Monte act with a kicker ending.

The Best Effect Only Takes Minutes To Learn

DEMI DECK

The miracle of demi deck is that it's easy enough for a child to perform, but powerful enough to make anyone who sees it feel like a child themselves. 

A pocket-sized twist on the classic "women sawn in half" routine, Demi Deck gives you the power to cut an entire deck of cards in half before magically restoring them. 

WATCH THE 2 MINUTE VIDEO PERFORMANCE HERE!

Demi Deck comes with a specially gaffed deck case, a blade, and a gimmicked queen of hearts that allows you to reassemble the deck "incorrectly."  

No matter how many times you practice this effect, you'll never be ready to the look of joy and wonder on your spectators' faces.

JUST FOR LAUGHS:

A guy driving a beat up Pinto pulls up at a stoplight next to a fancy Rolls Royce.

The driver of the Pinto rolls down his window and shouts to the driver of the Rolls, "Hey, buddy, that's a nice car. You got a phone in your Rolls? I've got one in my Pinto!"

The driver of Rolls looks over and says simply, "Yes I have a phone."

The driver of the Pinto says, "Cool! Hey, you got a fridge in there too? I've got a fridge in the back seat of my Pinto!"

The driver of the Rolls, looking annoyed, says, "Yes, I have a refrigerator."

The driver of the Pinto says, "That's great, man! Hey, you got a TV in there, too? You know, I got a TV in the back seat of my Pinto!"

The driver of the Rolls, looking very annoyed by now, says, "Of course I have a television. A Rolls-Royce is the finest luxury car in the world!"

The driver of the Pinto says, "Very cool car! Hey, you got a bed in there, too? I got a bed in the back of my Yugo!"

Upset that he did not have a bed, the driver of the Rolls-Royce sped away, and went straight to the dealer, where he promptly ordered that a bed be installed in the back of the Rolls.

The next morning, the driver of the Rolls picked up the car. The bed looked superb, complete with silk sheets and brass trim. It was clearly a bed fit for a Rolls Royce.

So the driver of the Rolls begins searching for the Pinto, and he drove all day. Finally, late at night, he finds the Pinto parked, with all the windows fogged up from the inside.

The driver of the Rolls got out and knocked on the Pinto. When there wasn't any answer, he knocked and knocked, and eventually the owner stuck his head out, soaking wet.

"I now have a bed in the back of my Rolls-Royce," the driver of the Rolls stated arrogantly.

The driver of the Pinto looked at him and said, "You got me out of the shower for that?!"

"A HUGE Imrovement to the Pen thru Bill!"

 

The Only Pen Thru Bill You Can Click

Write-Thru

Pen Thru Bill... With Proof!

The pen thru bill is an absolute classic of magic, and it's not hard to figure out why. It's easy to carry, easy to do, and defies the spectators expectations. Here's the problem, though. Nearly every magic kit will come with some form of pen thru bill. That means, a large portion of your potential audiences will understand how the trick works. 

But what if there was a pen thru bill that could do something that no pen thru bill should be able to do? Well, then you've got yourself the perfect convincer to a perfect plot. 

We worked with Bizarro and Danny Weiser to create this impossible pen, and the result is Write-Thru: the only pen thru bill effect that allows you to click open your pen, and actually write with it mid-performance

WATCH IT PERFORMED IN THIS VIDEO!!!

If you know how the trick works, then you know that shouldn't be possible. Just imagine how a layperson will feel! 

The performance is elegance exemplified. You borrow a bill from a spectator, stab your pen through the center, and... click. Despite being on opposite sides of the bill, the ink nib dutifully responds when the button is pressed. Click. And it retracts. Now you remove the pen, and magically heal the bill. Oh, and you can pass out the pen for inspection before and after

You puncture, you click, you heal! Rewrite the rules of the impossible with Write-Thru!

ORDER YOUR WRITE-THRU TODAY - CLICK HERE!

Stop the world and melt.  

Liquify

This won the 2024 Trick of the Year.

Liquify is the trick that finally answers the hard questions like "what if you could make a ring out of a cherry tomato?" or "what's the easiest way to melt my house key?"  

This effect can be best described as weaponized whimsicality. It's a surefire way to give an audience something they've never seen before! 

Imagine this: an ordinary ring softens at your touch, melts into a pool of liquid metal. But with a swirl of your finger, the liquid visually regains its solidity. And just like the now rigid ring, your spectators are warped back into solid reality.

But Liquify doesn't stop with rings and metal. You'll get eight different color gimmicks so you can melt and reform anything that you can think of.

JUST FOR LAUGHS:

A game Warden approaches a young hunter in the woods…

He asks: “Watcha got in that bag, son?"

The young kid snorts; "Three squirrels, Sir!"

"Let me see one of them squirrels!" The Game Warden licks his finger, shoves it up the squirrel's butt, sniffs it and says; "Well, this here squirrel is from Ohio and you need an Ohio Hunting License!"

The kid rifles through his pockets and produces one!

"Let me see another squirrel!" 

Same thing.   Licks his finger and shoves it up the varmints butt, sniffs his finger: "See now, this one is from Kentucky and you need a license from there, son."

Again, young hunter reaches in his pocket and produces a Kentucky Hunting License!

Finally, the Warden snatches up the last one, does the same thing and proclaims; "This one is local! You best have a West-by-God Virginia Huntin' License!"

Kid pulls one out of his top pocket; "Here ya go!"

The Warden snaps: “Geez Son! All these different Hunting Licenses, where the hell are you from?!"

The kid licks his finger, shoves it up his own butt, puts it under the Game Wardens nose and says; "You're so darn smart, you tell ME!"

Any playing card. In the blink of an eye.

 

Dex

One Gimmick. 40 Effects.

After more than two years of development, dozens of prototypes, and an unreasonable number of paper cuts, Javier Fuenmayor and Lloyd Barnes created what many now consider the finest single-pocket card index ever made: DEX. It’s a full 52-card index with a razor-thin profile that looks and feels like a small wallet, so discreet it fits comfortably even in skinny jeans.

WATCH THE VIDEO WE HAVE HERE!!!

DEX is designed for speed. Its intelligent, sloped layout and unique no-counting system mean that the moment a spectator names a card, you’ve already located it by muscle memory alone. No fumbling. No zoning out. Just instant access to any card, using any deck, at a moment’s notice. Invisible Deck, B’Wave, and countless other effects are now always available without carrying multiple gimmicked packs.
 
Every DEX is meticulously hand-assembled and refined to balance durability, flexibility, and comfort. But the physical index is only half the story. Included is a nine-hour masterclass, filmed by Lloyd and Javier, covering over 40 effects, essential sleights, real-world performance advice, and creative applications that go far beyond playing cards billets, envelopes, tarot cards, and more.
 
DEX is a system designed to remove friction, eliminate compromise, and let you focus entirely on the moment of magic. One pocket. Any card. Instantly. This is what happens when an index is built without cutting corners, and why DEX has become the gold standard.

Our Most Popular Effect is Back in Stock

Color Match

We Are So Back

If you're not familiar with Color Match, buckle up because this is one of the finest pieces of magic ever devised. Imagine handing coloring book page, leaving the room, and having the spectator fill it in. When you come back in the room, you reveal that you have colored the same page in identically. 

WATCH IT PERFORMED IN THIS VIDEO!!

Color Match is one of the most technologically-advanced tricks ever devised. You'll receive 5 gimmicked markers that will alert you as soon as they're picked up. And it's up to you to choose whether that notification will be visual or tactile! 

Best of all, you can remove the "gimmicked" part and install them in any item, turning the nearly anything into a covert mentalism tool. 

We're so happy to be able to offer this amazing effect once again!

This Revolutionary Trick Creates an Unbreakable Bond

Memory

Stop trying to make magic and start making memories

Balala Zheng and Billy Yeung are two performers who understand how to connect with an audience, and their new effect, Memory, is the perfect showcase of that. 

In memory, you and a spectator sign your names on two different pictures of hourglasses, one with a red background and one with a blue. You then each rip your pictures in half. Miraculously, your half and your spectator's perfectly align, creating a new image: a heart. To create an indelible record, the two halves are placed in a Polaroid-style photo frame where they will live forever.

SEE IT IN ACTION HERE - CLICK TO WATCH!

Memory is one of the most beautiful tricks ever created. While the method is clever, it's the presentation that elevates this effect to art. 

You'll get enough gimmicks to perform this effect 18 times along with detailed online instructions. 

This is the perfect reminder that magic is about more than fancy vanishes and flourishes, it's about establishing an unforgettable connection. For your next performance, think bigger. Create a Memory.

JUST FOR LAUGHS:

Three church pastors from different denominations are sitting around having a lunch together when the topic of tithes and offerings is brought up...

They ask each other how do their different churches decide how much of the money collected goes to the poor and those and need, verses how much of the money is kept by the church for the church's upkeep, growth and the Pastor's own pocket.

The Catholic priest goes first... "To keep myself honest, we don't count any of the baskets... and instead we alternate... one basket for the poor, next basket for the church, third basket for me, then we go again... poor, church, me... some days I do better than others..."

Next the Methodist pastor speaks up... "Well, what I do... and this might sound crazy... is I have a circle painted on the floor in my office. And each Sunday after service, I take all the collection plates and throw the money up in the air and whatever lands in the circle, we keep for the church and myself, and whatever lands outside the circle goes for those in need and the poor"

Lastly the Baptist preacher speaks... "Well... mine is kind of like our Methodist friend here... After the service... I take all the money... throw it up in the air... whatever God wants, he catches... anything that falls to the floor is for me."

"The coolest Every-Day-Carry I have ever seen."

 

Melt your spectator's own finger through the tiny hole in a key. 

Karate Key

The best reactions we've ever seen from a key trick.

Watch the video and see for yourself!

This is called Karate Key, but really your finger melts through the key in a really cool visual way.  

Here's what happens:

  1. You show a solid brass key and let it be examined.
  2. You press a finger against the face of the key and it visibly melts straight through.
  3. The finger is pulled free, the key instantly restores itself, and it’s handed out for examination.

It’s quick. It’s shocking. And it looks like real magic.

The key can be examined before and after with a simple move that the key's shape makes very easy.

Why we think you will love this:

  • Uses an ordinary, relatable object
  • Extremely visual — perfect for social media and live performance
  • Pure sleight of hand, no complicated setup
  • Pocket-sized and always ready to perform
  • Fully examinable before and after
  • Works as a standalone miracle or as part of the Key Master system

The method is practical, the reset is instant, and the effect hits hard in real-world conditions.

Thumb Lights: A Very Public Breakup

Firefly

Dear Thumb Tip Lights,

This may be the hardest thing I've ever had to say, but I can't keep living this way. I'm breaking up with you. I've found someone new to brighten my life: Firefly by Titanas

I don't mean to digress into personal attacks, but Firefly is everything that you're not. Unlike you, it's not stuck reliving the past. It has brand new Ghost Touch Technology, so I don't have to hear your loud clicks every time I use it. 

Firefly is bright... like really bright, and it's so much easier to operate. I can choose three different modes, precision control, semi-automatic, and fully automatic. I never have to worry that Firefly can't perform on demand.

With Firefly, I get to have my own space. I don't feel the need to ditch it after a performance to have a moment to myself. I can summon light at a moment's notice and show my hands and fingers completely empty.

Most importantly, Firefly is just supportive. It doesn't matter if I'm using it as its own effect, or adding flashes of light into my pre-existing routines, I know that it will have my back no matter what.

We had a good run, thumb tip lights, but we have to admit we've grown apart.

JUST FOR LAUGHS:

A farmer got pulled over by a state trooper for speeding.

The trooper started to lecture the farmer about his speed, and in general began to throw his weight around to try to make the farmer uncomfortable.

Finally, the trooper got around to writing out the ticket, and as he was doing that, he kept swatting at some flies that were buzzing around his head.

The farmer said, "Having some problems with circle flies there, are ya?"

The trooper stopped writing the ticket and said-- "Well yeah, if that's what they are-- I never heard of circle flies."

So the farmer says-- "Well, circle flies are common on farms. See, they're called circle flies because they're almost always found circling around the back end of a horse."

The trooper says, "Oh," and goes back to writing the ticket. Then after a minute he stops and says, "Hey...wait a minute, are you trying to call me a horses back end?"

The farmer says, "Oh no, officer. I have too much respect for law enforcement and police officers to even think about calling you a horses back end."

The trooper says, "Well, that's a good thing," and goes back to writing the ticket.

After a long pause, the farmer says, "Hard to fool them flies though.”

"The Future of Invisible Thread Has Arrived: Meet MagReel"

 

The Most Advanced Levitation System

MAGREEL

João Miranda has already cemented his place in industry as the most consistent creator of high-concept technological effects that anyone can use to create miracles. Fresh off the heels of a series of mind-bending releases like Leviosa and Leviosa Phone, the question on everyone's' minds was "what is next?

Well, what's next is here, and it's better than anything we've ever seen from him before. This is MagReel. 

WATCH FIVE DEMONSTRATION VIDEOS HERE!!

MagReel is the first ever programmable invisible thread system. Now, that's fine for a marketing headline, but what does that actually mean? It means for the first time ever, you'll get access to the MagReel app, where you can design, record, tweak, pause, and customize up to 50 different routines. That means you have direct control of the speed, delay, and frequency of MagReel's two separate motors. 

You can plan your favorite routines down to the last second. You'll even be able to choose when the device sends you vibrations, so you'll always know right before the next part of your routine happens. 

Ok, but even the most sophisticated program is useless if the form factor is lacking. The real genius in this invention is that MagReel isn't just a reel, it's powerful technology that's concealed in a classy MagSafe wallet that attaches directly to the back of your phone. When you're ready to perform, you casually set your phone down on the table, grab the secret thread, and your set up is done. MagReel isn't just disguised as a real wallet, it is one! You can really keep your cards in it, making this a device designed to be the focal point of your EDC

If you're like me and the idea of recording individual routines sounds overwhelming, João has you covered. Each MagReel comes with 8 professional routines preprogrammed. Right out of the box, you'll be armed with ready-to-use effects like making a bill fold itself, having a bottle cap float back to the top of the bottle, a needle that can thread itself, and more!  

If you rely on or want to explore invisible thread magic, nothing comes close. If you've never experienced the brilliance of one of João's effects before, you owe it to yourself to experience what real magic looks like.

Command Darkness. Command and Audience.

Silhouette

Become a shadow of your former self... but in a good way.

With Tobias Dostal's Silhouette, you will gain the ability to breathe life into 12 unique shadows, eschewing the magic's beautiful assistant for a macabre one.

SEE IT PERFORMED ON VIDEO HERE!!

The Silhouette gimmicks have countless, hyper-visual applications. Maybe you shine a light at your hand, but your shadow's hand is in a different position. Or, you can engage in a carefully choreographed dance, as you and a phantom hand battle each other. 

Silhouette plays directly against audience expectations and sows doubt in their understanding of reality.

JUST FOR LAUGHS:

A farmer named Lenny had a tractor accident and was thrown into a ditch after being hit by a truck.

In court, the trucking company’s fancy hotshot lawyer was questioning him.

“Didn’t you say, at the scene of the accident, ‘I’m fine’?” asked the lawyer.

Lenny responded, “Well, I’ll tell you what happened. I had just loaded my favorite cow, Bessie, into the...”

“I didn’t ask for any details,” the lawyer interrupted. “Answer the question, please. Did you, or did you not say, at the scene of the accident, ‘I’m fine!’?”

Lenny said, “Well, I had just got Bessie into the trailer behind the tractor, and I was driving down the road…”

The lawyer interrupted again and said, “Your Honor, I am trying to establish the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the Highway Patrolman on the scene that he was just fine. Now, several weeks after the accident, he is trying to sue my client. I believe he is a fraud. Please tell him to simply answer the question.”

By this time, the judge was interested in Lenny’s answer and said to the lawyer, “I’d like to hear what he has to say about his favorite cow, Bessie.”

Lenny thanked the Judge and proceeded:

“Well, as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite cow, into the trailer and was driving her down the highway when this huge semi-truck and trailer ran the stop sign and smacked my John Deere tractor right in the side.

“I was thrown into one ditch and Bessie was thrown into the other. I was hurting real bad and didn’t want to move. However, I could hear old Bessie moaning and groaning. I knew she was in terrible shape just by her groans.

“Shortly after the accident, a Highway Patrolman came on the scene. He could hear Bessie moaning and groaning, so he went over to her. After he looked at her and saw her condition, he took out his gun and shot her between the eyes.

“Then the patrolman came across the road, gun still in hand, looked at me, and said, ‘How are you feeling?’”

“Now tell me, Judge, how would you answer?”

"Defy Gravity and a Personal THANK YOU from Jeff & Brandi!"

 

Defy Gravity With Joel Dickinson

Pinnacle

Defy Gravity In Style

While we typically classify magic as visual, it means we watch some change happen in an instant. But powerful visual magic, doesn't have to be quick. It can be patient, thoughtful, and beautiful like Joel Dickinson's new balancing routine: The Pinnacle

WATCH THE DEMO VIDEO HERE!

In the Pinnacle, the performer is armed with 5 everyday objects: a marker, a deck, a card, a matchbox, and a match. Each appears genuine and ungimmicked. At the end of the performance, spectators will not be able to find anything amiss, but that just makes what is about to happen even more magical. 

The performer holds out the marker and carefully balances the deck of cards at the end. On top of the deck, he places a single card... just a little off from its center of gravity. 

Already holding an impossible structure, the magician places a matchbox on top of the card. Miraculously, nothing falls. Finally a single match is left dangling off the top of the matchbox. 

In that moment, gravity is meaningless. These normal objects, much like the audiences' disbelief, are suspended. Weightless. Then, the magician disassembles his makeshift tower, and structure returns to the world.

JUST FOR LAUGHS:

A wife calls her husband on New Years Eve and says, "Honey, be careful driving home from the bar.  I just heard that some complete moron is driving down the wrong side of the freeway."

The husband replies, "There's not just one, babe.....there's hundreds of them!"

END OF THE YEAR MESSAGE

Family

As we end the 2025 year, Brandi and I just want to give you our heartfelt THANK YOU for supporting MJM Magic with your business.

For those of you who may be new here, I started MJM Magic as a side project back in 2004.   At that time, I was 29 years old, still working in the Silicon Valley doing software engineering, tech support, and customer service for a medical imaging company.   Sitting in 3+ hours a day in back-and-forth traffic was very stressful.   Brandi and I also became parents to our firstborn daughter that year.

Fast forward six years.   Near the end of 2010, juggling both jobs, I now had a 6 year old, and a 3 year old.   MJM Magic had grown large enough to compete with my full time job, so I took the biggest leap of faith in my life: I quit my main source of income and devoted myself full time to MJM Magic.

That was over 15 years ago now, and while it's been every bit as stressful at times (haven't had a single vacation, had to deal with the premature death of my father, etc), I honestly couldn't be happier where I am at. 

I have gotten to know so many of you on a first name basis.  I get to create new website features and reward people for being loyal to us.   I've gotten to watch my children grow up (now 21 and 18 years old) instead of being away at some other miserable job.

So thank you to each and every one of you who have placed even a single order with us.   And a bigger THANK YOU to those who shop all the time.   You have really become like extended family to us, and we hope that our customer service to you is just as fulfilling as the products you receive from us.

We hope you have a SAFE and PROSPEROUS New Year, and let's make 2026 even better than 2025!

Love, Jeff and Brandi

This Borrowed Bill Becomes a real Black Hole!

 

Black Lips

"Looks Like CGI" is only the starting point

A black sticker is placed on a signed bill. In your hands, it turns into a black hole. 

That's the promise delivered by Black Lips by Victor Sanz, Julio Montoro, and Ultrabello. Why is it called Black Lips? No clue! But I can promise you won't forget that name. 

I know it's cliche to describe tricks as 'looking like cgi,' but what am I supposed to say when it legitimately looks like cgi? 

WATCH THE ENTIRE VIDEO HERE!!!

You get your spectator to hold their hands below their signed bill. They watched you put a small black sticker on the dollar. What they won't understand is when your finger is suddenly able to go through that sticker like it was a hole. 

Then their mind will be completely evaporated when you drop a small object through that hole and it lands in their hands. 

And once you hand the bill out to them at the end of the performance, you'll get to watch as they try to push a pencil through an ordinary sticker. 

So maybe this extends past cgi, this is a full 4-d experience that they will carry with them forever.

$10 For One Of Magic's Finest Effects

Australian Aces

Australian Aces is not just one of Trost's best effects, it's one of the finest monte routines we've ever laid eyes on.

VIDEO CLIP - WATCH THIS!!

You have 3 red aces and 1 black one, and you ask the spectator to keep their eye one the black one. To make things easier, you take one red ace and lay it face down. You give the remaining three cards a quick shuffle, and ask them to find the black ace. They confidently say it's in the middle, but, in fact, it is the face-down ace that has changed into the black ace
 
Repeat the process, this time going even slower. Still, the black ace has teleported to the table. 
 
Ok, one last try. You once again ask them to follow the black ace. This time, they point to the face down one. But it's still red. Instead the three cards in your hand have all turned into the black ace! 

We love Australian Aces because it's as easy to perform as it is baffling to experience. It's something that every magician should have in their repertoire.

JUST FOR LAUGHS:

Today I was beat up by a busty woman in an elevator.

Evidently I was staring at her breasts when she said, "Please press one."

I don't remember much after that.

HOLIDAY REMINDER:

It doesn't happen often, but we will actually be taking a (gulp) DAY OFF this week for Christmas!  We are going to spend time with family on both Thursday (Christmas) and on Friday (to travel back home).   We will resume shipping orders on Monday when we finish digesting all the holiday food!

Brandi and I hope you have an amazing Christmas holiday and we look forward to seeing all your names come across our Orders Page when we come back!
